Anyone using @forgejo #forgejo runners for #Perl have the same issue as me using github.com/shogo82148/actions-… for running perl?
My workflows fail during setup of shogo82148/actions-setup-perl, see screenshot.
The URL it fails on saying bad credentials works fine without credentials. Is this a #GitHub thing requiring something as the action is hosted there? I'm using the latest runner, cleared caches. Went back to previous version, same issue.
This used to work before...

@mahlzahn Thanks, tried that but no dice.
It seems something inside the latest version of shogo82148/actions-setup-perl broke. Using v1.34.0 gives me this error, but v1.33.0 doesn't.
The latest release is 3 weeks old and so far I haven't seen any bug reports on it. So I assume GitHub actions don't have this issue.

I sure hope we can all rally around OSUOSL and get them the funding they need to continue their invaluable work.

Redis 8.0 Released: Now Tri-Licensed With AGPLv3
Last year Redis made the much criticized move to Redis Source Available License v2 and Server Side Public License v1 (SSPL) licensing. The move was widely panned by the open-source community and led to the Linux Foundation forking it as Valkey and also other forks like Redict coming about. In the months since many Linux distributions have switched from Redis to Valkey. Now Redis Labs announced …

The #Forgejo monthly update was published ✨ It is a high level overview of the project activities.
Forgejo is now featured on the official Git website. Forgejo v11.0 was released on 16 April following quick fixes for identified regressions. The Helm chart was updated to version 12 for compatibility. Federation work continues on HTTP signatures and following user activity. The infrastructure faced SSH connection failures and excessive crawling.
> but it is where such a feature belongs instead of being implemented in every service (OpenSSH, Forgejo, etc.)
Doing it in the application allows for more fine grained control and better user feedback. Proxies often don't act on the application level and just block/drop traffic outright and then there is no feedback at all for the user and things just don't work.
